ABSTRACT

Indian abroad are not just people abroad. They are bundles of attitudes, convictions, anxieties, shared notions, fears and anticipations, all of which are Indians in their very texture. The links of Indian with India when in abroad is many times stronger than that of many other nationalities in similar situations. “Members of the family” for the Indians abroad includes different kinds of relatives with considerable and pronounced detachment in attitude and affection generally maintains a strong sense of belonging to India.
Two aspects about Indian Diaspora need to be emphasized: first, though abroad, Indian Diaspora is the product of Indian socio- political-cultural complex; second, it is not insulated against what goes on taking place in the mother country. Indian Diaspora continued and still goes on unabated, including skilled workers, businessmen, professionals, scientists and men and women of different cultures. The first generation of Diaspora has made their mark in many fields of activities in so many countries of the world.
